The Early Years
For on it might be,
To be so free.
But for me
Only God holds the key.
I look ahead
To see what life holds.
No heart is made out of lead,
So mine has to be bold.
So all I must say, before I cry.
Please, I don't want to say goodbye.

War
War is destruction,
Deadly, man-made machines,
That won't give up.

No More
Hate to be alone.
But I have to move one,
To be able to let go.
I'm sorry to say goodbye.
I thought you were mine,
Turns out you were just a thought.
You weren't mine,
You weren't even yours.
A sweet memory,
Stuck in the past.
Not moving forward,
Sad to say its over.
Let out a single tear,
My heart broke.
No change,
only devistation.
Everything I love,
Has gone now.
Your not the same,
You never were.
Let me go,
Don't hold me here.
Only pain,
Is destioned to come.
The one I came to call mine,
No longer can I call.
Its time to part,
Its time to go.
GOODBYE.

The Power Of Truth
One lie is a hole,
That burns deep in the soul.

Inside and Out, Two Different Things
Every time I see you, I start to daydream,
One look and my heart is yours to steal.
Afterwards you become so mean,
The hole were my heart was, just won't heal.
Every time I look you in the eyes,
I see the day's light.
But then your stories turn to lies,
And your eyes become dark as night.
It just gets worse and worse, the pain,
Now I feel nothing but hate.
Flowing free, like a wild horse's mane,
I was stupid enough to fall for the bait.
Now, I'm broken an dead inside, all I want to do is cry,
I'll do anything at all, please just don't say goodbye.

Old to New
Days carry on,
Such endlessly.
My thoughts fill my head,
Daydreaming of better days.
Tonight is time
To break free,
From the past
Into the future.
Lights shine from above,
The stars call out to me.
Let me be stong enough,
Let me be brave enough.
Breaking free.
The hardest thing.
The time is right.
The time is now.
Let my breath be steady.
My heart aches,
Yet it yearns.
For the unknown.
Goodbye,
Yet hello.
From the old,
To the new.
Wish me luck,
On the journey.
Taking chances,
Dancing with fire.

Holding On
Holding it inside is the worst thing.
Slowly tears roll down the face,
And the heart starts to hurt.
Can't take no more,
So just let it all out.
Trying to figure out,
Where to go from here.
Wishing to talk,
Not knowing what to say.

Daydreaming
Can you hear my heart
Pounding against my chest?
Every time I see you
I swear my heart will burst.
You see me, invisible
I see you, outstandable
Walking past me in the halls
Going to class to class.
You are so cute
Just when you smile
Please turn around and say 'hi'
Just a sign you notice me.
Many distractions through out class
One major one is you
My stories and my thoughts
All roots lead back to you.
Oh well for now
I'm stuck daydreaming.

D.c.l.s.
My world is devastated,
My world has crashed.
My mind surrenders
To my heart.
Forgetting what hurt,
I have been through.
What he has caused.
So my heart controls my word.
My word betray me
In all the chance they get.
My words are the enemy
That relate to my thoughts.
My thoughts are unusual
And give me away.
For all my thoughts lead
Back to him.
CRAP!

Beauty
Beauty is a way of life,
Without it you tend to be
Nothing more then
Who you pretend to be.
Beauty lets you choose
Between this and that.
Without it you are stuck
With what you have.
Everything about it is
Nothing but a big lie.
Beauty is on the inside,
Never on the out at first.
Beauty is earned,
Not freely givin.
Look in the eyes of the one you love,
You will find it there.

To: Tyler
He is about to move
This is his last year here
Hard to say I'll miss him
But if I don't it would be a lie
Tyler, your funny, smart, and cool
What can I say?
You were never my favorite person
But still I have respect for you
You knew how to make people laugh
And make people happy
You gave me my nickname
And many others theirs
I've known you for two years
Yes, you were a jerk at times
But you always made people smile
In a way, even I will miss you
Fairwell Tyler
To bad this is goodbye
Don't forget your friends
And for once, please don't forget me

Love for you
My heart is ripped
Right in half.
From the day I met you
I know I was in love.
I can never forget
The look in your eyes,
And they way
You made me laugh.
I could never
Love one like you,
But you let me
Love you anyhow.
We were never together,
As boyfriend or girlfriend.
We were simply friends
Of the best of nature.
I still love you
I want you to know
You ripped me in half
But it changes nothing
My love for you is
What you always have.
Even when Hannah goes away
You will still have my love to keep you warm
You can keep it
I don’t want it back
I love you
And you know it too.

The Sad Soul's Dream
Sadness and greif
Won't be found on a leaf.
By the slice of a knife,
You end your own life.
Jump ten stories high,
To give death a try.
Point a gun to your head,
Pull the trigger, now your dead.
Death is a pleasure,
For suicides's measure.
Life is a mistake
That we should never take.
But the sad soul's dreams
Are never what one seems.
For life is a gift
That is always missed.

The Desire
Your touch, Your voice
Is what I need
I feel so down
You bring me up.
You touch
Brings the fire inside of me
Been dead so long
You gave it life.
Your voice
Gets me inspired
To continue on
With all my work.
You in general
Make me star struck
To see you with me
Here and now.
Am I dreaming?
I hope it never ends
You are my desire
You're what I need.

Three Little Words
Three words are spoken,
And then forgotten.
Three little words I wish to say,
But hold back the unknown.
My head is dizzy,
My eyes are blurry.
All I think about are,
Those three little words.
For now I will hide,
Those three little words.
Hoping one day,
I can tell him freely.
But those three little words,
Are ‘I love you.’

Past, Future, Now
See a face.
Do I know you?
You look familar.
I must know you.
From a past,
From a present.
Somewhere in the future.
Your part of me.
Long ago in a dream.
I saw your face.
Keeping me close to you.
Embracing you, holding me.
Here and now,
I see you.
Talking sofly of sweet things.
I belong to you.
In a crystal ball,
We walk hand in hand.
Deep in a forest,
Together forever.
In my heart,
Though my soul.
The wonder of a simple role.
We are one and the same.'

I Feel
You hold me here.
I feel the pain.
I feel the torture.
You anchor me down.
I want to get away.
I feel the need.
I feel the deprived.
I long for freedome.
I look for the way out.
I feel so sad.
I feel like a mistake.
I search for the escape.
I call for help.
I feel rage inside.
I feel nothing at all.
I weep silently

For You
For you I would climb
The highest mountain peak
Swim the deepest ocean
Your love I do seek.
For you I would cross
The rivers most wide
Walk the hottest desert sand
To have you by my side.
For you are the one
Who makes me whole
You've captured my heart
And touched my soul.
For you are the one
That stepped out of my dreams
Gave me new hope
Showed me what love means.
For you alone
Are my reason to live
For the compassion you show
And the care that you give.
You came into my life
And made me complete
Each time I see you
My heart skips a beat.
For you define beauty
In both body and mind
Your soft, gentle face
More beauty I'll ne'er find.
For you are the one
God sent from above
The angel I needed
For whom I do love.

Dearest Sister
I love you so dear
You have what our two older sisters did not
A bright future that you have
Please stay in school and follow the rules.
No matter what
I will alwoays be there for you
Give me a call
And we'll talk for hours.
We are far apart
But the Lord will see you through
I may not be there
But my love for you is what you have.
We are both connected
In a way
That only most can say
We are sisters though and through.
I love you baby sister
Forever true.
